    The $58K state employee I speak of is a liberal friend of mine.  She has a daughter who is now 32 yrs. old, has had 2 babies out of wedlock, one at the age of 15 which she gave up for adoption and the 2nd at the age of 17 which was born with disabilities.  The daughter has been on some form of public assistance since the second child was born.  She has attended some form of educational classes in that time to remain on assistance.  She also gets SSI disability payments for the child and makes up the rest of her income by selling pot and moving from residence to residence not paying her rent or finding a boyfriend to supplement her income.  

    All the while this friend complains that her daughter does not have access to "quality health care" (she is on Medicaid), she does not have access to good housing (deadbeat renters usually have a history), she does not like the available public school special ed programs for her son (so she cajoled a Catholic school into admiting him on a free scholarship).  It never ends.  It is everyone else's fault that her daughter made bad life choices (right under her nose and control)and we must pay the consequences for her bad choices.

    And this friend just retired from the state and is now complaining about the benefits.  It really never does end.

    This was a very dear friend at one time but I try to avoid her at all times now because I cannot stand the old whoast me stories every time I see her or talk to her.
